COMMUNICATING USING A CLOUD INFRASTRUCTURE
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving a filter from a cloud infrastructure by a first computing device, wherein the filter has a criteria and is associated with a second computing device;
generating an item by the first computing device;
determining if the item satisfies the associated criteria of the filter by the first computing device; and
if so, providing the item to the cloud infrastructure for delivery to the second computing device by the first computing device.

Abstract
A cloud infrastructure that communicates with computing devices is provided. The computing devices install filters on other computing devices that they wish to receive items from including pictures, messages, and documents. The filters include criteria that are evaluated on the computing devices, rather than at a server, to determine if an item may be sent to another computing device. The computing devices may then send items that match the criteria to the cloud infrastructure, and the items may be stored and queued for delivery to other computing devices. The items may be encrypted before being provided to the cloud infrastructure, and decrypted when received by the computing devices.

15. A system comprising:
-
a cloud infrastructure; a first computing device that; generates a filter, wherein the filter has an associated criteria and is associated with the first computing device; and provides the filter to the cloud infrastructure; and a second computing device that; receives the filter from the cloud computing device; generates an item; determines if the item satisfies the criteria associated with the filter; and if so, provides the item to the cloud infrastructure. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
